Rwandan President, ASG Founder Collaborate to Address Africa’s Governance Challenges

Rwandan President Paul Kagame hosted a meeting with Professor Kingsley Chiedu Moghalu, the President of the African School of Governance (ASG), at the Urugwiro Village in Kigali.

The meeting underscored President Kagame’s commitment to fostering transformative governance and leadership across the continent, both as the Co-Founder of the ASG and as the President of Rwanda, the host country of the institution.

The African School of Governance, unveiled in October 2024 and based in Kigali, aims to equip emerging African leaders with the knowledge and skills necessary to drive the continent’s development.

The institution will offer graduate programs in policy, research, governance, leadership, and management, with the goal of nurturing the next generation of visionary African leaders.

During the meeting, President Kagame highlighted the importance of the ASG, noting that the institution will “carry the aspirations of the African continent.”

The Rwandan leader recalled that the ASG was conceived to address the inadequate tangible outcomes from previous initiatives to rapidly develop the African continent, despite some progress.
